Summary
The documentation provides detailed instructions for moving an Azure SignalR resource using the Azure portal and Azure PowerShell, with all command-line examples using PowerShell syntax and Windows-specific tools (e.g., Notepad). There are no examples for Linux users (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform editors), and PowerShell is presented as the only scripting option, which may disadvantage users on Linux or macOS.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) command examples for exporting, editing, and deploying Resource Manager templates, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
- Replace or supplement references to Windows-specific tools like Notepad with cross-platform editors (e.g., 'use your preferred text editor such as nano, vim, or Visual Studio Code').
- Explicitly mention that the PowerShell examples are for Windows and provide Bash/Linux alternatives where possible.
- Reorder or parallelize sections so that Azure CLI and PowerShell instructions are presented side-by-side or with equal prominence.
- Add a note at the beginning clarifying that the instructions apply to all platforms and that both PowerShell and CLI options are available.

Flagged Code Snippets
> [!NOTE] > > After the deployment, if you wish to start over or discard the SignalR resource in the target, delete the resource group that was created in the target, which deletes the moved SignalR resource. To do so, select the resource group from your dashboard in the portal and select **Delete** at the top of the overview page. Alternatively you can use [Remove-AzResourceGroup](/powershell/module/az.resources/remove-azresourcegroup): > >
1. Export the template of your source SignalR resource. These commands save a JSON template to your current directory.
1. To obtain region location codes, see [Azure SignalR Locations](https://azure.microsoft.com/global-infrastructure/services/?products=signalr-service). The code for a region is the region name with no spaces, **Central US** = **centralus**.
You can also change other parameters in the template if you choose, depending on your requirements.
1. Save the *\<resource-group-name>.json* file.
1. Create a resource group in the target region for the target SignalR resource to be deployed using [New-AzResourceGroup](/powershell/module/az.resources/new-azresourcegroup).
1. Deploy the edited *\<resource-group-name>.json* file to the resource group created in the previous step using [New-AzResourceGroupDeployment](/powershell/module/az.resources/new-azresourcegroupdeployment):
1. To verify that the resources were created in the target region, use [Get-AzResourceGroup](/powershell/module/az.resources/get-azresourcegroup) and [Get-AzSignalR](/powershell/module/az.signalr/get-azsignalr):
